Disable or Delete a Notification Channel
Temporarily Disable a Notification Channel
To temporarily disable a notification channel:
Log in to Sysdig Monitor or Sysdig Secure as administrator.
Select Settings > Notification Channels.
Identify a channel, and toggle the Enabled slider off.
To re-enable the channel, toggle the slider on.
Mute Notifications During Downtime
Admin users can prevent all notifications for all Sysdig teams from being forwarded to every notification channel.
To achieve this:
Log in to Sysdig Monitor as an Admin.
Select Settings > Notification Channels.
Toggle Downtime on to temporarily disable alert events and mute all notifications.
A confirmation window appears.
- Optional: To notify channels that notifications are temporarily disabled, tick the box Notify via e-mail or Slack. Select channels you wish to notify from the drop-down.
The Downtime toggle lets you silence all notification channels during, for example, a scheduled system downtime.
Delete a Notification Channel
Log in to Sysdig Monitor or Sysdig Secure as administrator.
Select Settings > Notification Channels.
Select the three-dot menu icon on the right side of a channel listing.
Select Delete Channel.
Configure an Alert Start-Up Delay (On-Premises Only)
Sysdig alert jobs begin immediately at start-up. However, in instances where Sysdig goes down unexpectedly, or without proper shutdown/startup procedures implemented, data can be missing, triggering alert notifications.
A start-up delay in alert jobs can be configured in on-premises
environments, by setting the draios.alerts.startupDelay
parameter. The
parameter requires a duration value; the example below shows a duration
of 10 minutes:
draios.alerts.startupDelay=10m
This parameter can be configured for Kubernetes environments:
- For Kubernetes environments, add the parameter to the
sysdigcloud.jvm.worker.options
parameter in theconfigmap
.
For more information on editing the configmap
refer to the On-Premises Installation documentation.
